Default Engine Degreaser ???

I have to clean the bottom of the engine & tranny. Fuel Pump diaphragm let go and spit oil down the right side. I have Castrol Super Clean, should I use that or go buy Gunks Engine Degreaser, or is there a better choice. I'll wash it down with a garden hose.

Try taking it to a self serve car wash ..use the high pressure soap cycle. At least for a couple bucks you can get most or all of it off. Let them clean up the mess!!!

It's a good idea, but I hate to use high pressure water, bad things can happen...

I used the water soluable Purple Power spray. It works great and you can hose it off. And if it ends up in your grass it won't make a huge mess or kill the grass.
